the US govt to offer free emails with cyber warnings and alerts about internet viruses and internet attacks. great. so the UKS taxpayers' money is used by the govt to offer free support to, among others, the world's largest monopoly which largely created such vulnerable software to boot. interestingly, this also brings the US govt and companies like M$ into conflict, which has its own often slower way of dealing with a vulnerability. this issue could soon crystallize i hope, into the US demanding 'transparancy' on source-code to identify and help resolve issues. so many different approaches in computing converge on one thing: the need of the hour for opensource, and so often, muft and mukt software.
